Using Canon’s next-generation color imagePlatform system architecture, imageCHIP (Concurrent Hyper Intelligent Platform), the new Color imageRUNNER Series brings fast engine and data processing speed and reliable color to office and professional users alike. The robust imageCHIP system architecture, with its dual CPU design and increased memory capacity (up to 1.5GB RAM and 80GB Hard Drive), helps to simultaneously process documents that are scanned, copied or printed quickly and efficiently.

“With advanced color document handling and finishing capabilities, this new Color imageRUNNER Series will change the way color is used in the office,” said Tod Pike, senior vice president, Imaging Systems Group, Canon U.S.A., Inc. “The Canon innovation and technology in this new series of MFPs are perfect examples of why Canon has been able to remain an industry leader in digital color imaging, from its first full-color copying machine in the 1980s to today’s award-winning imageRUNNER line.”
